Out In Space Lyrics
Oh my friend
We have spent
So much time looking for someone to blame
Cause were the same
The jealous games
Take up time we could spend on other things
Oh my friend
If it ends
Let us go and then not look back again
We can’t be
You and me
Taken' ourselves much too seriously
But out in space
A million miners work upon
The night’s cold face
But all I see is black
And all the stars look back
At me
Oh my friend
What a friend
I’d have thought you’d have stayed here till the end
I take a bow
Draw the crowd
We’re just words in the sand at high tide
But out in space
A million miners work upon
The night’s cold face
But all I see is black
And all the stars look back
And I’m leaving
Oh my friend
We should spend
Some more time looking from the other end
Cause we would see
So clearly
We’d blame ourselves as much as we’d blame weed
We’d blame ourselves as much as we’d blame weed
We’d blame ourselves
We have spent
So much time looking for someone to blame
Cause were the same
The jealous games
Take up time we could spend on other things
Oh my friend
If it ends
Let us go and then not look back again
We can’t be
You and me
Taken' ourselves much too seriously
A million miners work upon
The night’s cold face
But all I see is black
And all the stars look back
At me
What a friend
I’d have thought you’d have stayed here till the end
I take a bow
Draw the crowd
We’re just words in the sand at high tide
A million miners work upon
The night’s cold face
But all I see is black
And all the stars look back
We should spend
Some more time looking from the other end
Cause we would see
So clearly
We’d blame ourselves as much as we’d blame weed
We’d blame ourselves as much as we’d blame weed
We’d blame ourselves

i think this song is about a relationship that falling apart, and things just can't work.. and even though he still loves her, he doesn't know what to do and has to leave. and this just makes him feel lost and cold. like out in space perhapes?
the chorus is just beautiful.
One of my favorites together with "3 times..." and "Sailing Away" (the hidden track), of the Boy With No Name. I guess is about breaking up with someone after trying all that was possible to save the relationship It's as they were breaking up in good terms, not fighting, but he realizes it may be the best for both of them.
omg! no comments yet? what a wonderful song!
fav line: Oh my friend We should spend Some more time looking from the other end
i like how there is a musical shift when he sings "and i'm leaving", then "we should spend some more time looking from the end" follows. when this musical shift happens it's like he find the answer, "we’d blame ourselves as much as we’d blame weed"
